Hi All,
I have problems to view pdf file document with Adobe Reader although I have
successfully download adobe reader 8.1 many times. It shows it has encounter
a problem and need to close. I suspect there are some corrupted files remain
even thought I have uninstalled it. Please advice how to completely remove
Adobe Reader file and folder from Window XP, so I can download it again.

Thks.

Hi chwfran,

You may want to try downloading Foxit Reader (free). It's much faster, with
lots less overhead.

I'll second that. Also, a lot less likely to b0rk your computer, which the
latest Acrobat is perfectly capable of doing. If Acrobat won't uninstall it's
likely that registry-permissions corruption has occurred, in which case a
System Restore is probably the best option.
